Sumário

Jon Austin is an internationally awarded creative leader with a demonstrated history of delivering commercially effective and creatively ambitious work that has made brands famous. He has worked in both network and indie agencies across a broad range of clients and categories, ranging from cars to planes, and from booze to banks.

Regardless of the brief, Jon enjoys working fast, collaboratively, and with a complete lack of ego. This attitude has resulted in his work being recognized at every major awards show worldwide. Recently, he helped win the global creative pitch for Tourism Fiji, subsequently launching their new brand platform. He also made Air New Zealand both Australia and New Zealand's most trusted brand for five consecutive years, created a #1 true crime podcast for the Australian Federal Police, developed three effective and enduring brand platforms for Avis Budget Group, separated Avis, Budget, and Apex rentals within the APAC market, took Pine O Cleen from supermarket deletion to category leader, and innovated a new model of eco-tourism for the nation of Palau. This innovation has been officially blessed by Palau’s Council of Elders and praised by global policy-makers as a tourism game-changer.

Jon is comfortable delivering earned ideas that make global headlines or building long-term brand platforms. He excels at galvanizing teams to do their best work, building strong relationships quickly with clients, getting on the tools, delivering world-class ideas under pressure, getting you out of a creative bind, or smashing out a winning pitch. To seek his assistance, drop him an email and let him know how he can help.
